Five iodine boracites, M(3)B(7)O(13)I (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cd), have been synthesized by reactions of metal oxide, B(2)O(3), element B, and I(2) at intermediate temperature above 350 °C. Powder X-ray diffraction analyses verify the identities and purity of the products, which are also confirmed by magnetic property measurement. Except safe, cheap, and convenient, this novel method is significantly flexible in the selection of the starting metal oxide. The influence of the reaction temperature and time has also been studied.

Peri-implant diseases, such as peri-implantitis, affect up to 47% of dental implant recipients, primarily due to biofilm formation. Current decontamination methods vary in efficacy, prompting interest in polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) for their antimicrobial and protein-specific cleaning properties. This study evaluated the efficacy of polymeric nanoparticles (NPs) in decontaminating titanium dental implants by removing proteinaceous pellicle layers and resisting recontamination.

In this report, we describe the photoluminescence of a homoleptic uranium(IV) alkoxide complex. Excitation of [Li(THF)][U(O Bu)] leads to the first example of photoluminescence from a well-defined actinide complex originating from an f-f excitation, supported by second order multiconfigurational electronic structure calculations including spin-orbit coupling. These calculations show strong spin-orbit coupling between the excited triplet and singlet states for the 5f-orbital manifold, which leads to a long-lived excited state lifetime of 0.

The one-pot terpolymerization of epoxide (EP), anhydride (AH), and CO to synthesize polyester-polycarbonate copolymers with precise sequences remains a significant challenge in polymer chemistry. In this study, promising progress was achieved by utilizing a cyclic trimeric phosphazene base (CTPB) and triethylboron (TEB) as a binary catalyst, enabling the synthesis of both well-defined block and truly random poly(ester-carbonate) copolymers through the one-pot terpolymerization of EP/AH/CO. By adjusting the molar ratio of CTPB/TEB to 1/0.

During the implantation process of cardiovascular implants, vascular damage caused by inflammation occurs, and the inflammatory process is accompanied by oxidative stress. Currently, carbon monoxide (CO) has been demonstrated to exhibit various biological effects including vasodilatation, antithrombotic, anti-inflammatory, apoptosis-inducing and antiproliferative properties. In this study, hemoglobin/epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) core-shell nanoparticle-containing coating on stainless steel was prepared for CO loading and inflammation modulation.
